Electric Quarterly Reports, Revised Public Utility Filing Requirements; Notice of Extension of Time

May 15, 2003.

On April 25, 2002, the Commission issued Order No. 2001,1a final rule which requires public utilities to file Electric Quarterly Reports (EQR). Order 2001-C, issued December 18, 2002, instructs all public utilities to file these reports using Electric Quarterly Report Submission Software, beginning with the report due on or before January 31, 2003 (extended to February 21, 2003). On March 28, 2003, the Commission issued Order 2001-D, requiring public utilities to review their fourth quarter 2002 EQR submissions to ensure that the data filed was correct. Utilities were directed to re-submit their corrected data by April 11, 2003, which was extended to April 18, 2003.

1 Revised Public Utility Filing Requirements, Order No. 2001, 67 FR 31043, FERC Stats. Regs. ¶ 31,127 (April 25, 2002); reh'g denied, Order No. 2001-A, 100 FERC ¶ 61,074, reconsideration and clarification denied, Order No.2001-B, 100 FERC ¶ 61,342 (2002).

On April 23, 2003, FERC staff discovered a problem in the "Copy Forward" feature of the EQR submission software. Although the feature has been fixed, filers who used this feature before it was fixed may have to re-enter some data that was previously manually entered into the software. The Commission is committed to ensuring that high quality in the data be filed in the EQRs and subsequently extended the filing deadline for first quarter 2003 EQRs to May 15, 2003.

Several companies have requested further extensions to the filing deadlines to resolve problems they experienced with their EQR filings. We would like to allow these utilities the time needed to ensure that they can successfully file high quality data. Notice is hereby given that the time to file corrections to the fourth quarter 2002 EQR as required by Order 2001-D is extended to the date listed for each company identified in theattachment tothis notice.
